I love a good Lenny Larry’s cookie. In fact, sometimes I’ll run across the street to the nearest Duane Reade just so I can eat this scrumptious protein-filled snack at work (because my creativity flows better when I’m fully satisfied and eating sweets that come with added fuel).
My favorites are Snickerdoodle, plain old Chocolate Chip, and Peanut Butter, all with 16 grams of protein, though I haven’t heard a bad thing about any of the flavors (they even have a seasonal Pumpkin Spice cookie! ). Now, Lenny Larry’s has launched a line of keto cookies with only three net carbs.
Each cookie – they come in Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter, and Coconut – has 5 grams of fiber and 8 grams of plant-based protein (pea protein, to be exact), which means that they’re vegan-friendly (note: the packaging indicates that the cookies are manufactured in a facility that also processes milk and eggs).
They are also gluten-free. As for sweetening, all three flavors contain stevia extract.
These keto cookies are now available on the Lenny Larry’s website for you to buy in bulk (if you so choose). In mid-October, you can find them in Walmart, and they’re coming to Vitamin Shoppe locations in November, a spokesperson confirmed. Ahead, I tested out the three treats to give you a virtual taste. Check out a review and nutrition info breakdown for each.

Uhhh, Did You Know Trader Joe’s Is Selling Oat Milk Now?
Get ready for lattes! Trader Joe must’ve heard our pleas and prayers because the grocery store is now selling its own version of oat milk. According to Instagram user @bethanybuysthings, you can find both a refrigerated and a shelf-stable dairy-free Oat Beverage on shelves now. My morning smoothie is so ready!
Now, it’s time to break down the nutrition facts: 1 cup of the shelf-stable beverage ($2) is equivalent to a single serving and has 110 calories, and that’s not the only thing worth celebrating. It also only has two ingredients: water and hydrolyzed oats. Wow. If the refrigerated alternative milk ($4) is more your speed, you can expect 1 cup per serving with 90 calories. There are added vitamins and sugars, but @bethanybuysthings explained it tastes similar to the popular oat milks in stores now. Get ready, get set, get yourself to a Trader Joe’s ASAP before these fly off shelves!
